25 Memorial Day Thank You Quotes

Never in the field of human conflict was so much owed by so many to so few.”   —   Winston Churchill

(I wonder how Winnie would feel about the “USA, USA, USA!” chant, which started with the 1980 Winter Olympics, when our hockey team beat the Czechs, but has since become so ubiquitous, and more than a little jingoistic?  I can’t imagine he’d approve of it.  We always used to be more of a humble people, pretty much welcomed all over the world.  Nowadays, most countries look at us with a very suspicious eye, and sometimes with utter disdain.  We should always be proud of our country, but we could all stand to be somewhat classier about it.  Strange comment for Memorial Day???  Maybe.  But we should be more introspective on the day where we remember – and appreciate – all those who gave their lives in service of our country.  Be well and do good, friends.)   —   YUR
